A beating heart

Where do I search for the smiles

Hiding in a closet, with broken toys

Looking outside the window, nothing for miles

And then I catch a glimpse

A wrinkled memory fading into the distance


I hold on tight and play it on repeat

It slips through anyway

And the demons arrive with a treat

Faces in the distance call out to me

But the waves are too high and the void too deep


Everything pulls me away

Yet there’s something that makes me stay

The touch, the smell, the breath engulfs me

His smile is all the love i ever need

His hugs are all the warmth I ever want 


The silence reaffirms his presence

Miles away yet in sync with my every pulse

The blinding light drives me insane

I close my eyes, and hold his hand

Resisting the life I need to feign

Close your eyes and DREAM When u stand atop Everest and gaze down at the vanishing valleys, When u sail in the pacific and feel the winds manipulate Ur every move, When u lie in the insignificant shade of a palm tree in the Sahara and feel the sands blinding Ur eyes, When u gaze at the Hawaiian sunset and feel Ur hopes go down with the sun, JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES AND DREAM… When life makes a cunning move and vanquishes Ur knight and bishop, When circumstances determine Ur decisions and leave u helpless, When Ur closest friends turn their backs on u and leave u stunned with remorse, When the whole world seems to be crashing down on you, JUST CLOSE YOUR EYES AND DREAM… When all that u believed in just seems to be a mirage, When that someone u trusted Ur life with suddenly leaves you all alone, When u come upon those times where you feel like you don’t know yourself anymore, When you desire silence, peace of mind and most of all eternal happiness...

Finding you.

Walk into a maze of mirrors, and you feel the reflections stifle you Gaze at a star studded sky, and you feel the emptiness fill you up Make memories the air you breathe, and you feel suffocated with each passing day Wipe the dust from your eyes, and you feel the storm getting stronger This is the beginning of the search, the search for who you really are Its that one smile that kills the numbness That one moment shared, that makes you forget The one word said, that wipes all doubt off your mind That’s the one time you dared to live again, by abandoning who you thought you were And embracing who you can be To start all over is no easy ordeal To let go is even harder To give it a chance is faith To hope for more is sin To know that who you are is who you want to be, is the secret

Life- a mirror

Her eyes open, open to this glaring myriad of mirrors Mirrors that reflect off her innocence, her inner desires She breathes, breathes in the intoxicating, poisoned air Poisoned by the infinite elements of human nature The conscience of a thousand minds, The harmony of a thousand strings, The innateness of a thousand beings, All in a single confine All in a single reflection She rises from the delve of the unknown From the graveyard of a million screams To seek sanity in a new beginning To seek purity in new faith All she wants to see, remains an illusion All she wants to feel, remains a dream Smothered by a smog It gets hard to see, hard to breathe, hard to feel She feels it slipping away She feels it fading away Into the darkness, into the void Her feet are sinking, sinking in the red sand She lay tied down, the creepers entangling, choking She begins to fall, deep into the abyss Into the depths of the unknown It’s the beginning of an end The beginning that never began As she falls d...
